The debate is out there: should I blog or should I not?


Who has the times these days.


If you are like me, I had a great day out with the family yesterday on Father's day. In the corridors of our office I passed a colleague and we exchanged hellos and greeting etc:


Me: How you going? How was the weekend?


Colleague: not to bad - how was yours?


Me: Oh! It was awesome. Saturday was just a brilliant start to Spring and yesterday was just great with Father's day and all... ...it was great. How was your father's day?


Colleague: well, I am not a father - yet.


Me: but didn't you spend it with your father?


Colleague: I don't have a father.


I immediately withdrew as I could see this person may have had trouble somehow in this area.


Nevertheless - we continued to exchange pleasantries and we kicked up a conversation on time or the lack-of time to get on-line to do some personal facebooking, twitering, and general blogging (note spelling here).


The question is: when do we find time to socialise on the social network platform?


When do we find time for our families?


When do we find time to ourselves?


Should I be blogging at all? I have emails to read, pages to look at, googling to do and there is Wikipedia to access. I have people to text and family to call. Meetings to go to and other phone calls to make.


I need a break just from the social media.


I need a cup of tea now.


So, why am I blogging at all I wonder? Aghhhh that's right... ...it was to let you know that we have our very own social media page for you to go to:
